I am about 2/3 of the way finished with another wolf drawing.... I just LOVE working in pencil. I think it's similar to black&white photography..... it lends itself to so much more detail & light. I won't be able to work on it this afternoon... I have to work my dayjob til 5 today.I got a request for a commissioned drawing - but I simply cannot do a decent drawing for $10. She wanted it in color, no less. Sometimes I wonder if people realize that alot of time & effort (and yes, love) goes into my artwork - I don't just do quick sketches. No matter how much I would like to please everyone, I simply can't. I did alot of research on pricing my artwork, and I believe in fair market value. OK, I'm down from the soapbox now, contemplating a good Father's Day gift for my Dad. He is really special to me, and I always try to find something he would enjoy. Hmmmmmmmmmm.....

Well, the weatherman was wrong - he said today would be partly sunny and 80 degrees, it is raining and 59. The only thing he had right was the wind. Oh well.Great news!

About Me

About Myself:
I began developing my artistic abilities in high school, and earned a Bachelor of Art Degree in Art and Bachelor of Science Degree in Computer Graphics. I gained recognition through a college internship in which I created computer graphics for a project exhibited at Chicago's Museum of Science & Industry in 1985.
Today, I am an internationally known artist, having sold my artwork all over the world, most recently to buyers in the United Kingdom, Canada, Japan, Scotland, Sweden, Spain, Norway, Ireland, Italy, and the Netherlands.
I reside on my family farm in the rolling hills of Eastern Iowa. Surrounded by cornfields and cattle, my love and respect for nature is reflected in my deeply realistic artwork.
